Exclude the Tableau Server Program Files folder and Program Data folder from continuous antivirus scanning while Tableau Server is running. Instead, scan these Tableau Server folders when Tableau Server is stopped or not in use.

(Note: The Program Data folder is hidden by default: you must show hidden files and folders in your operating system to see it.)

Windows Vista and later versions or Windows Server 2008 and later versions:C:\ProgramData\Tableau\Tableau Server\data

Cause

The Run As User account does not have appropriate permissions for the drive where Tableau Server is installed, or antivirus software is scanning the Tableau Server Program Files or Program Data folders while Tableau Server is running.
